Hearts Come Home - Eclipse Card


This was the second Eclipse card I designed for my Make and Takes for my Team Training meeting last month. I do like this one :o)

Hearts Come Home is my favourite of all the Christmas stamp sets in our Autumn / Winter catalogue. I love the coordinating framelits too, but just used the stamps for this card.


The white panel was stamped first and then put through the Big Shot with the Large Letters framelits dies. The centre of the 'O' was the only 'waste' piece that had to be reinserted and the letters are nice and big, so the Mini Dimensionals were perfect for them :o)

Sweet Cupcake - With Embossing Paste


Today I am sharing the second card my ladies made in my Sweet Cupcake Project class this month.

All the cards had very simple layouts and all of them used some of the Glitter Enamel Dots - I included a pack for everyone with the class.


Instead of stamping the cake topper, this time we used Embossing Paste. 

The Paste was coloured with a drop of Berry Burst re-inker. The topper was die cut from a little of our Thick White card and the Paste gently spread over it. The texture was created just by tapping the palette knife over the surface. Once dried, I added a little Fine Tip glue and sprinkled our Dazzling Diamonds glitter over the top. I then spread this all over the topper using a paint brush.

Hearts Come Home - Christmas Ornament


This sweet little ornament was the final project my ladies created in my Christmas class this month.

This project was inspired by a German Demo - Gabriele Pawlitzek. Gabriele posted a photo of several she made on a Facebook Group I belong to. I couldn't resist making one myself and including it in this class :o)

I used one side of a 70mm Fillable Ball Ornament - which I found on Amazon :o) This enabled me to use Stampin' Up!'s Layering Circles dies to create the backs.

These ornaments are really simple to do. I built everything onto the large Scallop Circle then added the 'snow' to the centre. I applied our Tombow Multipurpose adhesive all around the back edge of the Ornament and then carefully placed it centrally onto the Scallop Circle. It was then left until completely dry before moving.


The 'snow' was another purchase from Amazon :o)
